  • Loving the baby bouncing pics would add one of t but not sure how to do it.

    Busy day went to bumps and babies where we had doughnuts :j:j
    Then went to tesco where a guy gave me a 2 fingered salute as was leaving as he parked in the parent and child space and was talking to t loudly about how inconsiderate it is :mad:

    Do any of your bubs have a crying fit before sleeping, he does this all the time just did it my arms. Should I let him or is there another way?

    Molly used to have a nightly wail - it's just stress relief. Like sitting down with a cup of tea, only noisy.

    No way of telling hun, some people just have big babies. Surely they would discuss induction if bubs is big? Maybe it will be your next MW appointment they will chat with you. If you are worried why not give her a ring tomorrow. They are supposed to be more careful if they think bubs is big. My DD was 9wks early due to being too big but that was fluid. :A
    Too many children, too little time!!!

    The scans are not accurate when guessing weight. And weight gain slows down near the end. It could be that you have a baby with long skinny legs which makes them appear to be larger than they are. Babies also don't grow at a consistant rate at your stage either. It could be that he/she has had a grow and will slow down for a few weeks, work on the brain functions for a while.

    You could go early or late or bang on time.
